Talking About John Cassavetes’s Big Trouble (1986)

On this big episode of Oeuvre Busters, Liam and George welcome guest host Kel Karpinski to discuss John Cassavetes's final film, Big Trouble, starring Peter Falk, Alan Arkin, and Beverly D'Angelo. Topics discussed: safari Columbo; why the American dream is actually an American nightmare; why Yale is terrible; how Big Trouble is both a Die Hard prequel and a Face/Off prequel; and why you can't imagine a world without The Simpsons. Topics not discussed: string theory! Will it or will it not resolve the tensions that exist between Einstenian astrophysics and quantum mechanics? How the fuck should we know? We just make a stupid podcast. But please do rate and review and subscribe whenever and wherever you can. We greatly appreciate all the support! Please also support Kel's amazing zine work!
